BIG HORN SHEEP OF THE GOING TO THE SUN ROAD

Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep, named for their large horns that can weigh up to 30 pounds on males, inhabit alpine meadows and grassy mountain slopes in the Rocky Mountains of Glacier National Park. Their ability to climb steep terrain allows them to find cover from predators. Traveling in flocks and feeding on grasses and shrubs throughout the year, they are one of the few species that can survive winters at high elevations.

  • While waiting out a blizzard in Estes Park Colorado, I spotted this male elk pacing and making incredible noises. I realized that he was on one side of the fence, and all of the females were on the other. I anticipated his jump and was able to catch this amazing sequence of photos.
